the recording, dealing with new material, two or three times. On the second and subsequent times, the student repeats the Irish words aloud while reading the English equivalents. The student should then be able to understand the six basic sentences when heard for the first time. After listening to and repeating aloud the basic sentences the student should be able to reproduce them using only the stimulus provided by the cartoons. The revisionary sentences are then treated in a similar manner. The same approach is then taken with the second section of new material, and after that the situational conversation. Once the student can reproduce the Irish version of the conversation while glancing only at the English version for assistance they have mastered the lesson. Each day's work begins with an attempt to reproduce the previous day's situational conversation in the same way. If needed the recording can be played once or twice to aid recollection.
